1 2012 Annual Report

2 2 Message from the President/CEO & Chairman of the Board of Directors Dear Friends, One thing has remained constant with Goodwill since it was founded in 1902 a focus on employment. Fundamental to Goodwill s mission is the belief that people want to work to provide a better life for themselves and their families. Slogans such as We Believe in the Power of Work and A Hand-Up, Not a Hand- Out were created as communication tools to help the public understand that Goodwill supports an individual s right to work and prosper regardless of his or her barrier to employment. As we were updating our strategic plan in 2011, we were faced with extremely high unemployment rates. California s rate was 12.1%, Kern County s was 14.4%, Kings County was 15.3%, and Tulare County s was 15.7% - all significantly higher than the 9.1% national unemployment rate. Thus, the most important goal for us was clear: in order to meet the needs of individuals living in Kern, Kings, and southern Tulare Counties, Goodwill needed to get back to its roots and create more job opportunities for individuals who were unemployed, on welfare, or lacked the job/life skills necessary to compete for the few jobs available in the private sector. To accomplish this goal, we identified two key strategies: 1) open new retail stores in underserved markets; and 2) develop a self-funded Transitional Employment Program designed to hire, promote up, and promote out as many local individuals with barriers to employment as possible. We developed a retail expansion plan to create job opportunities and in late 2011 we opened two new retail stores in Tulare County. Our new Transitional Employment Program officially launched in January We adopted the slogan, Hire, Promote-Up, Promote-Out to help the public understand the program. In this report you will read about the results of our first year of the Transitional Employment Program. We are proud of the results we had in creating new jobs and hiring individuals who were having difficulty finding employment elsewhere. We are also pleased with our success in preparing employees for promotional opportunities and, though the numbers in the first year were modest, our employees who promoted out to community employment opportunities gained a substantial wage increase, putting them well on the path to a better future. We ended the year with continued progress on the retail expansion plan, negotiating new leases for stores in Hanford and West Bakersfield which will result in the creation of 37 new jobs. Those stores are expected to open in mid We are thrilled to be able to deliver on the original promise of the Goodwill mission, to Hire, to Promote Up, and to Promote Out. Thank you, Mr. Dustin Dodgin Board Chairman Mrs. Sheryl Chalupa President/CEO Dustin and Sheryl

In conjunction with the refinancing of our owned facilities in 2006, we entered into this swap agreement to convert the interest rate from variable to fixed. Generally accepted accounting principles for non-profit organizations require that any difference between the current value of such an agreement and the related debt be recorded as an operating loss (or gain) and a corresponding long-term liability (or asset). In 2012, this difference was a gain of $120,610 and the cumulative loss from the inception of the loan through 2012 is $993,703. However, no payment for the loss is required to be made to the mortgage lender unless the loan is retired early. Management does not intend to retire the loans early and anticipates no need to do so. Consequently, we have excluded these losses from the above presentation to provide the reader with a more-relevant depiction of our operating results.
